EATING FRUITS AHEAD OF MEAT

It takes 24 to 72 hours to digest meat, depending on the person’s digestive tract, state of health, medications taken, what is eaten with it, emotions and other factors (from HNU by King Institute, Inc.)

And when we consume meat, our digestive system works extra hard to digest the meat. That's why, after a heavy meaty meal, we will feel lazy and sleepy. This is because more enzymes than necessary are consumed and are working overtime to digest the meat.

Fruits take up to an hour to digest. And, because meat takes much longer to digest, the fruit we consumed after a meal will just sit on top of the undigested food in our intestine. This causes the fruits to ferment in your stomach and it starts to rot, producing gas, and causing a host of problems to our health.

So, when we eat a huge meal, drink with it a glass of fresh pineapple juice afterwards (not canned). Pineapple is rich in bromelain which aids in proper food digestion. (From juicing for health.com)
